Marcus Stroman (elbow) to start for Blue Jays on Friday in series opener
Toronto Blue Jays pitcher Marcus Stroman (elbow) will start Friday's series opener against the Detroit Tigers.
What It Means:
Stroman will be able to avoid missing a turn in the Blue Jays' rotation despite suffering a right elbow contusion during his last start this past Saturday against the Baltimore Orioles. The 26-year-old right-hander has twirled a 3.08 ERA, 1.31 WHIP, and 19.9 strikeout percentage (K%) across 172 1/3 innings this season while going 11-6 in 28 starts.
numberFire's models project Stroman to record a 3.87 ERA, 1.33 WHIP, and 17.1 K% in 28 innings over the remainder of the year.
